[MacTUG] Anyone have trouble getting Connect mail with Mail.app this morning?

[Trevor Bain]

Hi Dawn
The successful connection using ADS credentials is either cached or other credentials are being used when the ADS ones fail. The user accounts are all configured to use NEXUS accounts. If you can send me the username I'll check that user but the logs indicated that we had successfully switched all target accounts to use Nexus. Okay, there were 2 failures but we tracked down the issues there and fixed.
 
This took us by surprise because the domain configuration wasn't needed before the switch and testing in the dev environment indicated that it wasn't necessary afterwards either.

Trevor,

I've got at least one report of ADS credentials continuing to work for a Mac user whose setup explicitly uses the prefix, as well as people needing to prepend NEXUS\. Are both sets of credentials working now, or is it more likely that something is cached in the client that's continuing to function?
